Good morning — these are not just holidays. This is the time when the end-of-season results have been completed according to the seasonal plan. Reports from the forestry sector and the core topics of conversation with the deputy head of the regional administration, the head of rural agriculture and food security Maxim Kapelkam:
— Crop production and cereal and fruit-bearing cultures, wheat — the village's profile remained exactly as in previous years. Of course, bread is always given special attention. The harvest brought in such figures: corn grain collection reached 22,917 tons, which is 134.6% of last year's level. Average grain and fruit yield — 22.2 centners per hectare plus 1.5 c/ha compared to last year. It is worth noting the contribution of the peasant-farmer enterprises "AgroAuto", "Gapeukha", and "Sadovoye", whose output is very significant in this statistic.
Furthermore, the delivery is better than last year, but it is still far from our possibilities, and we still have reasons to strive for something. Nevertheless, much has been done by farm owners, agronomists, mechanizers, landlords, and workers to increase and finish the harvest. People really invested their souls in their work.
The worst harvest results were achieved at AAT "ViazunitsaAgro", where only 4,417 tons of grain were collected. At the leader of AAT "ZhornavkaAGRO": each hectare yielded 24.9 centners, and in total they accumulated 127.1% compared to last year's harvest. Currently, peasant-farmer enterprises should not be missed out on "AgroAuto": here the yield was 4,245 tons, and the average yield is 38.6 centners per hectare. This is a clear proof that fertile land can provide good yields.
If considering crop varieties, one must pay attention to barley. In AAT "ZhornavkaAGRO" it came out at 25.8 c/ha, in "AgroAuto" — 45 c/ha. Overall, more than 7,300 tons were harvested. Important for us is also wheat, of which 6,326 tons were collected. The most important wheat grain was grown at AAT "ZhornavkaAGRO" — 27.1 c/ha, and at AAT "Avangard-Niva" — 25.1 c/ha.
And finally, one must think about how to optimize the distribution map so that the maximum yield comes from the land. An agronic strategy is important here.
The state order for the region has been executed regularly and in full volume: to the processing facility for these products, 1,800 tons of grain has been delivered.
The new technology played a decisive role in the harvest. On the fields, among others, two new combines operated — at the AAT “Avantgarde-Niva” and “Pratasevichy-Agro”. In total, 27 grain combines were deployed. Overall, not counting various auxiliary equipment, the farm's machinery park was replenished with three power‑assisted “Belarus-3522” tractors, two MTZ‑82s, three front‑end loaders of the “Amkodorr-352” brand, and four MAZ trucks. Technical resources are sufficient.
An important task was also fodder preparation. For the winter stall period, it is necessary to stock at least 28 centners of fodder units of grass fodder
